HI Claude; Earnings should be out about AUG 1, street is looking for
7 cents..can you dig 7 cents..on a 7billion market cap <G>
well the momentum investers say that is good, because she is a
super growth stock. Any hoooow she may pull the rabbit out of the
hat..by skewing the recent add payments into this quater..even though they are paid up for undelivered service, and should be prorated and claimed as the servise is provided, AOL has gotten by skewing things much more far fetched.
Still I think that after the report is fully
digested a few retirement type funds may say hey this makes no
sence, and she could take a fair hit next month. But I doubt the
bottom will fall out till later. The bottom can't fall if there is
a jillion shorters..as when they cover they check her fall.

You will note last year when she fell, she did not drop all at
once..each time shorts covered and took profits, it checked
her fall some, so the down slide was a ragged jagged one.
Lots of shorts on this sucker, too many to count on any big
hit all at once unless a real disaster happens that they can't
cover up. I tell you she has a good damage controal team, to
have squeezed out of the 40 some AGs a halfassed and piecemeal
settlement for ripping off millions of subscribers says she has
some clout.
